Is there a cable that will connect a SiK Telemetry Radio V3 - 915MHz, 100mW to the rtcm qwiic port of the SparkFun GPS-RTK-SMA Breakout - ZED-F9P?
Not directly; but you could use https://www.sparkfun.com/products/18079 and https://www.sparkfun.com/products/17261 to accomplish it
You’d wire it like this adapter https://www.sparkfun.com/products/17854 (which does not fit into a qwiic port itself)
I was wondering about something like that. Thanks

OK, I’VE got cables, but the pin out is defeating me. Since the holybro is 5v, and the qwicc is 3, I need to power the holybro via usb wall wart. Q blk to Blk on Holly, Then I’m presuming that TX & RX need to go to blue and yellow (and swapped) ?
Apologies, Missed the 5v needed for the radio…it also uses UART/serial directly which isn’t qwiic-ready either
But! What you can do: get a portable battery bank (those output 5v usb, you can get them for under $5) and power the f9p that way. Then wire thusly (looking directly at/into the holybro 6-pin port), you need to use these 4:
5v Rx Tx _ _ GND

“Blu”/Rx to Tx on f9p
“Yel”/Tx to Rx on f9p
“Brn”/GND to GND on f9p
Keep in mind the order of the wires is what matters, not the color (if your colors are different!)
" which isn’t qwiic-ready either" I was wondering, but there was a qwiic port for rtcm, so I was hoping.
